Japanese mizuno mask for sale

Yes, we all know that you can sell anything you want at any price the market will bear. That wasn't the point Kevin was making, and that seems to go over everyone's head apparently.

The point is, the guy was selling a mask at 3 to 4 times what it was worth, which is truly indeed ripping people off, no matter how you armchair, wannabe economists try to spin it. Kevin would have, at the very most, sold it for what it was worth and not a penny more. I know this because I know of his character personally.

You can call it "gouging" or any other term you want, or maybe that term is not technically correct. Who cares. And yes, there was someone stupid enough to buy it at the high price, which proves, as Mr. Umpire and someone other than P. T. said, there indeed is a sucker born every minute. But the guy who sold it was the "suckee."
